Social media sensation Khaby Lame was briefly detained in the US on June 6 at Harry Reid International Airport for a visa violation, just a month after arriving for the Met Gala 2025. Despite holding Italian citizenship, ICE confirmed he breached US immigration rules, though he was released the same day and has since left the country.

With over 162 million TikTok followers, Khaby didn’t let the incident slow him down, he posted a new promo video the next day like nothing happened! Known for his silent comedic skits, Lame’s brush with US immigration seems like just a minor bump in his incredible journey from factory worker to TikTok megastar.
